Reverse Balisong K'nex Knife

Intro: Reverse Balisong K'nex Knife

one of my favorites due to its density when closed and stability when open.

STEP 1: Blade

STEP 2: Handle

build two of these

STEP 3: Tang and Pivots

this is where the blade and handles join together.

sorry for the blurriness.

STEP 4: Connecting

join the handles to the gray clips by the blue rod

the second connection of the half moon connector should be notched onto the small green (in this case black) rod

and finished  =:^b

I think it looks a little bit big...but rly I don't care about size.

The Sensei 13 years ago

well i try to make all my designs functional and stable first and worry about size second, plus im 6'4" so its kinda the right size for me. and this is off topic but ur comment was such a good set up; thts wat she said! lol

are these actually real or did you design it yourself?

The Sensei 13 years ago

there are actual knives like this, i personally like them better than traditional balisongs (butterfly knives)

Does this knife require any special pieces? such as sharpend knex, rubber bands,ect.

The Sensei 13 years ago

nope, its all regular, non-modified peices

The Sensei 13 years ago

well, for this knife there i havnt found any way else to make the blade so tht it will be sturdy and still b semi-accurate to the real thing. but i do have a few other 'ibles of knex knives
